I have found (as I've gotten older, and, hopefully wiser) that I no longer seek out objectivity because it cannot exist in most human interest topics.

Economics has no objective truth, as evidenced by its inability as a whole to make accurate predictions. Politics has no objective truth, because we need to understand people's motivations which are often hidden from themselves.

If you see this kind of headline and get upset because of the editorializing, I suspect you should only read about physics and math. At least until you start to see the subjectivity in those fields as well.

We cannot escape our biases. We cannot communicate objectively - the decisions of what to talk about, how we express it, and how much context to include - those all fly against objectivity.

It took me a while to accept that I'm not a logical robot and to embrace the parts of humanity that I previously found distasteful because it couldn't be cleanly reduced to a binary.
